Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lodge Original Finish Camp Dutch Oven Lid StandCustomer Review: dutch oven lid holder Summary: 4 StarsThis is a very useful tool to have but I found it for a better price in stores.
Customer Review: Love Lodge, but mine must have been a lemon! Summary: 1 StarsOver the past year I've purchased quite a bit of Lodge preseasoned cast iron cookware and I simply could not be happier with it. This seemed like the perfect solution for our "where do we put this thing" question when grilling meat in the grill pan and using round grill press. It did work perfectly, for about 5 times. Then the bolt that holds the two pieces together simply snapped in two. I was so frustrated that I threw it away (stupid as I should have just replaced the bolt)... but I'm still very disappointed in the quality of this item especially compared to the very high quality cookware I have from Lodge. I also wanted to note that mine arrived very clearly marked "MADE IN CHINA" which I was very surprised by as I thought all lodge products were made in the USA and the product description states this to be true.
Buy with caution!
Customer Review: Excellent workmanship in a useful item Summary: 5 StarsJust like everyone else, I find the workmanship excellent and item useful in a regular kitchen. Cast iron lids are too heavy and too hot to be placed on the "average" kitchen surface.
Can be used as a trivet for a large skillet too.
Customer Review: Were to out the lid?? Summary: 5 StarsWhile cooking with a dutch oven it is usually necessary to open and stir several times. While using your lid lifter as to keep from getting burned the next quandary is where to set the lid. You don't want it in the dirt, and with all those coals on top it's kinda heavy. This is where the lid stand comes it. It keeps the lid clean and out of the dirt. Sturdy and well balanced. The perfect accessory to add to your dutch oven cooking.
Customer Review: Great for Frying! Summary: 5 StarsThe user's insert says that charcoal can be placed under the inverted lid support for the likewise inverted Dutch oven lid and the combination makes a great griddle. I had to try it to believe it. I'm a believer! A few layers of briquettes are needed in order to get it hot enough to sear meats. I found that if the briquettes are placed on a flat surface, the lower ones get starved for oxygen and extinguish. But if a way is devised to raise the lid support and charcoal on a (Weber, or other) grill up at least an inch, all the charcoal will continue to burn and the griddle/lid will reach the requisite high temp. I use a woodstove chimney/top thermometer as a temperature gauge. I've purchased a second lid support so as to be able to double my pancake output. (I have 10" and 12" Dutch ovens.) I assume the lid support used as such would work equally as well as a 'side burner' for all manner of cast iron griddles, pans, or pots.
